A police officer in Conroe, TX lost his eye after a man opened fire on the officer with a shotgun. The cop’s dash cam caught the whole incident:
KZTV reports:
Surveillance video was released Wednesday of a shooting involving a Conroe, Texas police officer. Sgt. James Kelemen responded to a call at Flower’s Baking Co. in Conroe at 4 p.m. Saturday because a man was threatening an employee with a shotgun. Kelemen was shot in the face by James Richard Hill, 54, according to prosecutors. Officers returned fire at Hill and he died at the scene.
Dashcam video showed Hill carrying a shotgun run to a pillar outside the bakery. Standing next to the pillar, the gunman pointed the weapon at Kelemen, who was taking cover behind his patrol car, investigators said. On the video, you can hear the sergeant repeatedly tell Hill to drop his weapon. “Put the gun down, man, put it down. What’s going on?” Kelemen said on the dashcam video. “We can talk about this, but put it down. Just put the gun down, man.”

Posted on April 8, 2011 at 2:51pmMakes me wonder if some of you actually read these articles or just start posting. The article reads, and I quote, “officers returned fire at Hill, and he died at the scene.”. So many posts here hoping he’ll go to prison, etc, etc, etc. He’s dead, gone, never to hurt anyone again. Prayers for the injured officer for a speedy recovery.

Posted on April 8, 2011 at 2:47pmI respect the police officer and absolutely do not understand nutcases like this that are allowed on the streets. Let me guess, just like the case of the Tucson shooter, VIDEO PROOF of him committing a crime isn’t enough to just lock them up and throw away the key. There shouldn’t even be a question of this guys guilt and yes, he is a nutball, but he is a nutball that broke the law and that should NOT be a defense.

Posted on April 8, 2011 at 2:43pmNo way that was buckshot. At that distance the buckshot would have penetrated his brain housing unit and he would be a TOSA candidate. 00 Buckshot’s MER is about 50 yds. It looks like #6 shot, judging by the size of the holes. Prob not birdshot (#71/2 – #9), more holes and smaller.
You are right in thinking it was good it wasn’t a slug tho. He wouldn’t even be an organ donor if he got canoed by some 12 G slug sabot.

Fox failed to mention who the shooter was, what he was apprehended for, what he got charged with, etc. Either fill in the facts or don’t link the story.

Certainly you don’t come to the Blaze, or listen to FNC or read Fox web site, for ALL your news. Hopefully you have the fortitude and sense to do your own reasearch, wether it be about current events or the Bible, to make informed decisions. I would hope, if you have not done so already, that you would want to be fully informed. Fox has always claimed to be “fair and balanced”. They never claimed to be complete. Niether has the Blaze or Glenn Beck. If you want completness do some homework.

Firearms safety rule #4: Know your target and what is beyond.
This soon to be felon’s back was to strip mall windows. The officer did right in not firing immediately; because, it is likely had his round passed through this man, that an innocent may have been injured or killed. This officer should have been wearing safety glasses and should have taken better cover behind his vehicle. He would have saved his eye. In this case, hindsight = ceramic eye.

Left wing, anit-gun nut jobs try to blame inanimate objects for actions they are incapable of carrying out.
Guns don’t kill any more than knives or baseball bats or fists.
John Stossel of 20/20 did a great pieces on gun control and it’s monolithic failure…even the governments own Center For Disease Control did a study on gun control and found that gun control INCREASES violent crime and where ever there is freedom to carry guns, there is LESS violent crime.

I remember BHO saying something along the lines of if they brings knives to a fight we are going to bring guns. I really don’t here many claiming that knives kill people as most people use a knife every day to prepare their food that could easily kill someone. But because all the people use knives every day they understand the natural relationship here. The simple fact is that there are about 30-40k car accident deaths a year and only about 10k gun deaths. The vast majority of those are crime related. So yes, it is the person and not the gun. Do you hear people (other than greenies) calling for the control and abolition of cars? No for the same reason that the same understanding exists with knives.
Here is a good video about gun rights from Bill Whittle to pass and share with others:

Thanks for the comment. I do have a CCW in application and I do have my guns at the ready. Most people don‘t have a CCW so this exception doesn’t apply and I was only trying to point this out. On a personal note it’s a bit weird since I never really grew up around guns at all in CA and never understood the importance they have in my life and others. Its a real fun hobby in the least and best case scenario. I guess you could say that I was indoctrinated by the left out there that I didn’t need to own. Whereas I never thought guns were bad.
